Building Services 1

Our lecturer for Building Services is Ms Lim Tze Shwan. She is a nice lecturer and always gave us a warm and big smile when she saw us.Although Miss Lim is a part timer lecturer,she also very patient and teach us until we understand.

In this semester, the syllabus focuses on Ventilation, Telecommunication, Storm water system, Drainage, sewerage and treatment, Cold water supply, Hot water supply and so on.In this subject, we have an assignment which we needs to do both the report and presentation. 

Group assignment 1:hot water supply systems + Case Study

Through this assignment I learnt  how to identify the application system, installation,process, benefits, problems and anything relevant to hot water supply systems. I gained a lot of useful information of it. We need to find a case study and explain it, but finding the case study was tough and after we found it, all 7 if us have some hard time interpreting what it does and what it means.

In conclusion, it is a very interesting module to study and it completes my knowledge on how buildings work.This module is also almost related to our every day life and let me to know much about the components that complete a building in this module. Now I know that there are various types of ducts and conduits concealed within there compartments that keeps the building running .Besides that.we also know about the water we use and waste, communication between us, our room air purity. As a future quantity surveyor, we must know everything about the materials and the components inside the building, as it is crucial to identify and distinguish each and every one of it.
